A company I worked for built a room for something like this that had been spec’d to handle customer billing. By the time the actual purchase was completed (several months) that big room had a desktop PC, a couple of heavy duty printers and some external storage all sitting on a standard office desk. That was one of the fastest changes in technology I’ve ever seen. The IT guy just smiled and said, ‘yep, it’ll do everything the big one could do’. 😆 And it did.
That was mine too 😅
VIC20 here. My friend and I used to spend our afternoons typing in games from a book...I had the commodore data cassette and more importantly (to me at the time) the programmers reference guide...learnt to build a database and programme a version of a James Bond game that my uncle had on his kit computer. I remember looking at the pamphlet before my parents bought it for me and seeing such wonderful figures like 3.5k of user RAM..didn't know what that meant until I was programming that James Bond game....Loved it, had all the original packaging and ended up selling it only a couple of years ago..in perfect working order...kind of heart breaking...
Cool!
I used to write music on it with Music Composer. Would sit for hours...
Had a Tandy with a 286 processor next but never really did music stuff on it. Next musical adventure was much later on a Korg TR
Vic20. I had the cassette tape drive as well. High tech!!
Dragon 32 was my first. After that: c-64, A500, A1200
Wish I still had the Dragon.
Atari 1040 ST ... pretty great . Eventually got an Atari Mega4 ST so I could start editing samples beamed back and forth to a sampler via MIDI sample transfer. Imagine that...
you can see at the poll that ZX-spectrum and Commodore 64 were rivals at that time. C64 was more populair. I had the ZX. Later got into the Amiga 500, then Dos PC, windows, and finally MAC.
Cassette data storage was always a hassle, especially when you copy it with a double cassette deck. When you got home from copy from another friend, the tape speed was sometimes off, so i figured out that i can install a potmeter in the tape-speed circuit of my cassette-player to adjust speed.
Based on these comments, the average age on this Forum is older than I would have thought.
My first computer was the original IBM PC, 1981. All floppies, A and B.
Boom! Me too! Munchman, Parsec, BASIC
Good place to get your nerd on...

Started with Atari ST running Trackman,
Just for nostalgia it runs on an android phone with the ST emulator Hataroid 😀
Age 13 I got an Atari 400 modded with proper keyboard and 48K RAM. Learned to program it pretty well and made a few simple graphic adventure games and music pieces. Loved my 48K Spectrum too at the same time.
Computer, wife, or program? All three maybe?
Kinda seriously though, way more people had a TI-99/4A than I would have expected for a computer that failed so spectacularly in the marketplace. It had plenty of potential too if they hadn't botched the marketing.
Nothing but the hardware 😅
Computers are all about software. Without great programs, nobody will be interested.
Remember that Sharp PDA with a unix derivative?
iOS is also based on BSD but it's the software that made iOS so popular.
Sounds similar to me ... after saving up for ages to buy the 48K Spectrum I could only afford 2 games (Penetrator and Chuckie Egg I think) so I decided I'd learn to program. I made up a system for creating simple adventure games, and a data structure for storing the room info, which I was quite pleased about. An example of how lack leads to innovation!
me too! Many games of alpiner and hunt the wumpus were played in my house.
TRS-80 Model I with 4K memory. It’s was good for ~200 lines of BASIC before the memory was used up. If you used up the memory it reset and wiped all your work. It took 45 minutes to save a 150 LOC program to an audio tape at ~70 baud IIRC. It saved it three times in the hope that 3 X duplication would increase the chance of it actually working, no such luck. Even with three copies, the odds of a successful save were less than 50%. The only way to tell if the save was successful was to try and reload it. The first thing a reload did was wipe the memory. A year later there was an upgrade to 16K and a higher and more reliable BAUD rate. The save function became 95% reliable after the upgrade.
You used the tape recorder that was for saving data as your audio interface, You could push raw machine octal machine code into memory to create an routine to save strings to the tape recorder and the play the tape back with audio on to see what you had. Finding new strings for new tones or sounds was a big thing. Pitch was pretty hit and miss. I think the upgraded BASIC that came with 16k upgrade had built in functions to write to the recorder IIRC.
I paid $600 for the original TRS-80 Model I 4K and another $600 for the 16k upgrade for a total of $1200 in Aug 1977. I ordered it the first day it was available. The Radio Shack manager had to call headquarters because he had never heard of it.
Funny thing is I eventually sold it to a collector, is like serial number 12 or something like that. He paid me $1350 around 1986 so I made $150 on it. I asked for $1350 because that was the cost for 512k memory to upgrade my Sanyo desktop from 128k to its full capacity of 640k

First family computer was A500. Turrican was the coolest game ever to five year-old me.
My first own PC was a hand-me-down Gateway 2000 with a whoppin' 266MHz Pentium 2. It handled cheesy landscaping in Bryce like a charm! Eventually got a 32mb Riva TNT 2 graphics card in there which really made the lens flares and lighting effects pop in the games of the day (Half-Life, AvP, GTA 2).
My first x86 PC was this one:
Coming from Atari ST and Amiga, lack of good PC software with a graphical UI made this mostly a "WTF" experience 😄
Commodore +4 followed by Amiga 500
Are those actual arrow keys?
Mac Color Classic , running Studio Vision and Photoshop 3.0 I think? Way back in 95 before Photoshop had layers 🙂
Amiga 500 here - Took the first one apart in less than 30 minutes, and the guy at the computer shop helped me out it back together.. I was nine haha!
Yes!!!
Atari 1040 STE
